im rooting agains Chiefs for Brady legacy reasons. But the chiefs are a much more admirable team than the Ravens
It's easy to like the Chiefs for how great they are. But I really, really, really don't want them anywhere near the Patriots' (or Mahomes near Brady's) dynastic stratosphere. A Super Bowl win this year for them absolutely gets me gravely concerned.
I think he does fine with the homework. It gets old how much he gushes over Mahomes, but it’s equal time today — he’s gushing over Jackson too.
KC should be up more, but Baltimore should be legit concerned by how their offense looks. Their passing game looks shot.
Maybe we should be happy that the Pats didn't draft a QB who's very good but not good enough.
I am never going to root for it, but it would be karma for what they did to Brady if Mahomes got
Does SF? They already gagged one SN to Mahomes.
I’m truly stunned by how lousy the Ravens look. On both sides of the ball. Gonna be hard for Lamar and Harbaugh to wash the stink off of this one if they don’t rally.
Lamar 5/12. Fair or unfair he will never live down his playoff rep unless things get massively better.
Their loss in the 2019 divisional round was a huge wet fart, and losing decisively at home in the AFCCG in their very next legit playoff run would be a tough result to swallow.
Time of possession is still over two to one in favor of KC. Tends to wear down the defense on the wrong side of that.
I like that the NFC game is second, makes it really easy to know who to root for depending on how this game finishes.
I was all set, I thought, to root for Baltimore. Then they showed Ray Lewis and I just ….. couldn’t.
Well when you have the AFCCG at home and, outside of one incredible play, you lay a complete egg, yeah, you deserve the criticism. But the game isn' over yet.
Niners linebackers and DBs so much better than Lions…. More of an answer for Kelce.
I think Detroit has a bright future but Goff against the KC D would make for an extremely boring Super Bowl I suspect.
For pure enjoyment we really needed it to be Buffalo/NFC. Stupid Bills.
CBS is reportedly gonna clear out much of the older studio guard after the SB, so I bet they wanna push Watt as much as is possible this week and during the SB.
I root for the Sixers. I know the basketball forum is full of you Massholes taking shots at Joel Embiid for sitting out games and such, which is why I stay out of it. Because none of that shit matters, and I support everything Nurse and company are doing to get him to the playoffs healthy. Because at this point, ALL THAT MATTERS is what he does then.
The same with Lamar. He's going to win another MVP, deservedly so. But that will matter little to how people rank him among the greats if he can't at least get his team to a Super Bowl, never mind winning one. This second half isn't crucial to his legacy, but he has to start proving himself in the playoffs at some point.
